If you are continually getting the UE and or you get the error running a empty basket on spin, this being on the top load Kenmore Elite washers , it can be the "hall" sensor on the stator. Recommend replacing the stator "motor" which usually comes with a new "hall" sensor attached. This solved problem for my customer.

This was the second time this has happened and I've had it less than 5 years. And Sears Service SUCKS!!! I will never buy a Sears machine again. I just need help in finding the right part for my machine.

If you push down on center of basket "empty" and it comes back up without bouncing, (stiff), suspension is good, if it is real weak , it'll bounce up and down a few times. ( like bad shocks on a car). Could also be bad gearcase. If in spin it sounds really loud, ( like a jet airplane), gearcase needs replaced.

Who the &&^& wants to change sensors and motors on the *!&*^#% washing machine!!!! This pos won't even spin! Where is the &&^&^$^ knobs and the spin setting? I'm stuck with wet clothes and a stupid machine because some dumbass was trying to get fancy with a simple &&^&^$^ washing machine that worked fine with knobs!!!

My Maytag with knobs lasted 20 years, I got suckered into buying an LG frontloader and my clothes always stunk now I'm 2nd year on this high dollar Kenmore pos and still don't work as good as my old one!!!
